    I am not sure I can say enough positive feedback about Alyssa. She is exceptionally talented at her craft and an absolute joy to work with. She is kind, flexible, and accommodating. She is able to capture the most salient moment and tells an authentic story with the photos she captures. Her eye for nature and color is exceptional. She flew across the country to photograph my wedding and I would fly across the country to her to have her photograph every life milestone I hit, she is that worth it. My parents, in laws, and bridal party (all with varied opinions on everything) all loved her. Other vendors loved working with her. You will not regret choosing her as your wedding/anything photographer.

    Alyssa, owner of Candid Clicker, is a fantastic photographer who captured the essence of our wedding with her lens. She has a great eye and documents all the details that the bride and groom might not register through the hustle and bustle of the big day. A quick scroll through her Instagram quickly proves her talent to capture the emotion in each shot. She is very knowledgeable about spots around Chicago, NW Indiana, and SW Michigan so she has great suggestions for where to take photos. During the shoot, she put everyone at ease with her easy going yet professional demeanor, and her friendly personality. I first met Alyssa when I was a bridesmaid for one of my close friend's wedding and she was the photographer. We had such a wonderful experience with her, and even though it was thunderstorming off and on during pictures the photos turned out outstanding. I wasn't even dating anyone but I knew that I would want her as my photographer when the time came for me to get married. Flash forward a few years later and she was the first vendor I booked. Alyssa offers both packaged and a la carte pricing, both of which are very reasonable. We opted for one of her standard options, which includes a free engagement photo session. As a side note, I really recommend taking advantage of this offer because not only do you have photos of this special time in your life, you also get comfortable taking staged photos with your SO and it helps a lot to have practice on wedding day. Alyssa is quick to respond and easy to work with. Whether you have the whole day planned or you need more than a little guidance, she goes with your flow. The day of the wedding, Alyssa and her second shooter were on time and ready to go. She came to the room just as we were finishing getting ready to get the shots right before I put on my dress. Then it was a well-controlled whirlwind of photos, from the first look through the portraits. We talked about everything ahead of time, including a portrait list, so we were able to get through these without any lag or confusion. Through the ceremony and reception, I hardly noticed the cameras while they were discretely shooting away. At the end of the night, Alyssa gave me the heads up that they were finishing and we got a couple of final portraits before they headed out. A couple of days post-wedding, Alyssa posts a sneak peek on her Facebook page so we immediately had some beautiful images to share with family and friends. Then, she retouches every photo before sending out links to the finished product. She sent us nearly a thousand photos from our wedding and we relived the spectacular day frame by frame.
